Tagged driving events may be generated during a driving session from sensor data collected via one or more sensors and/or entered by an instructor. The tagged driving events may include a description of each driving event and its associated severity or weight as it relates to a scoring process as well as a time and/or a location of the driving event. A driving session report may be generated using the tagged driving events and may include a driver feedback score that is weighted based on the severity associated with each of the tagged driving events and/or the collected data, a map of the driving session route that indicates a map location of each tagged driving event, and/or a listing of each tagged driving event. The driving session report may be displayed such that a user may select a tagged driving event to view information associated with the tagged driving event.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: determining, by one or more processors, an occurrence of a first driving event during a driving session upon receipt of a first user input; generating, by one or more processors, a first tagged driving event that includes details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a second user input; generating, by one or more processors, a driving session report based upon (i) the first tagged driving event, and (ii) driving data collected during the driving session; displaying, by one or more processors, the driving session report including the first tagged driving event; and displaying, by one or more processors, the details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a third user input that indicates a selection of the first tagged driving event within the displayed driving session report.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: determining an occurrence of a second driving event based upon a sensor value, which is generated by a sensor that is integrated as part of a mobile computing device that displays the driving session report, exceeding a threshold value.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the details associated with the first driving event include a severity indicator weighting for the first driving event, and wherein the act of generating the driving session report includes applying the severity indicator weighting to calculate a scaled driver feedback score.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the driving session is associated with a driving test performed by a driver, and wherein the details associated with the first driving event include an automatic failure indicator, such that the occurrence of the first driving event results in the generated driving session report indicating that the driver has failed the driving test regardless of other driving events occurring during the driving session.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the details associated with the first driving event are negative or positive based upon how the first driving event reflects upon a driver's performance during the driving session.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the driving data collected during the driving session indicates one or more of braking, steering, and acceleration of a vehicle during the driving session.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the details associated with the first driving event include a geographic location of the first driving event and a description associated with the first driving event, and wherein the act of displaying the driving session report comprises: displaying a map of a route associated with the driving session including the first tagged driving event at the geographic location of the first driving event.
8. A system, comprising: one or more front-end components configured to: determine an occurrence of a first driving event during a driving session upon receipt of a first user input; generate a first tagged driving event that includes details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a second user input; generate a driving session report based upon (i) the first tagged driving event, and (ii) driving data collected during the driving session; and one or more back-end components configured to store the driving session report, wherein the one or more front-end components are further configured to access the stored driving session report, display the driving session report including the first tagged driving event, and display the details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a third user input that indicates a selection of the first tagged driving event within the displayed driving session report.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more front-end components include a mobile computing device, and are further configured to determine an occurrence of a second driving event based upon a sensor value, which is generated by a sensor that is integrated as part of the mobile computing device, exceeding a threshold value.
10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the details associated with the first driving event include a severity indicator weighting for the first driving event, and wherein the one or more front-end components are further configured to generate the driving session report by applying the severity indicator weighting to calculate a scaled driver feedback score.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the driving session is associated with a driving test performed by a driver, and wherein the details associated with the first driving event include an automatic failure indicator, such that the occurrence of the first driving event results in the generated driving session report indicating that the driver has failed the driving test regardless of other driving events occurring during the driving session.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the driving data collected during the driving session indicates one or more of braking, steering, and acceleration of a vehicle during the driving session.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the details associated with the first driving event include a geographic location of the first driving event and a description associated with the first driving event, and wherein the one or more front-end components are further configured to display the driving session by displaying a map of a route associated with the driving session including the first tagged driving event at the geographic location of the first driving event.
14. An on board computer integrated as part of a vehicle, the on board computer comprising: a processor configured to: determine an occurrence of a first driving event during a driving session upon receipt of a first user input; generate a first tagged driving event that includes details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a second user input; generate a driving session report based upon (i) the first tagged driving event, and (ii) driving data collected during the driving session; and a graphical processing unit (GPU) configured to: display the driving session report including the first tagged driving event; and display the details associated with the first driving event upon receipt of a third user input that indicates a selection of the first tagged driving event within the displayed driving session report.
15. The on board computer of claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured to determine an occurrence of a second driving event based upon a sensor value, which is generated by a sensor that is integrated as part of the vehicle, exceeding a threshold value.
16.
